LOTF Post

I chose a given passage on page 83-84 when the kids were talking about the beast. I think Piggy is right about fear of people. Many kids on the island target him or tease him so I can see where he is coming from with the fear of others on the island. Piggy can probably tell who he should fear the most. When piggy asked what the beast eats, and someone said pig, piggy responded with, "we eat pig". I think he is trying to get the point across that the ones who kill are the beasts. 

I think when Piggy dies it has symbolism connected to the passage. Right before he dies, has the conch thinking that Jack's group will reason and not act as crazy. Piggy thinks that the beast is in the kids bad actions, and Piggy is trying to get the group calm down, so the beast comes out in Rodger, and kills him. This passage has a lot of meaning.

Human Nature

Humans are full of flaws. Humans aren't ever perfect. They make mistakes like being late or forgetting something. No one could possibly be perfect. Some people say "I'm human" and it literally means that humans make mistakes. Over time I learned this through experiences of my own and others around me. At school especially people make mistakes. For example, forgetting to do homework, being late to class, not studying, and getting a bad grade. Those are only some examples of flaws. But instead of thinking about all of those flaws, I'd rather think about all the good people can do.

F.B.I. Raids Office of Trump’s Longtime Lawyer Michael Cohen

F.B.I. Raids Office of Trump’s Longtime Lawyer Michael Cohen; Trump Calls It ‘Disgraceful’   by Matt Apuzzo. This article written  about Michael Cohen, who works for Donald Trump. He was raided Monday Morning. The F.B.I. had a warrant going to his house and office taking emails, documents, records and many other documents concerning Donald Trump. The author's opinion doesn't seem very opinionated , just factual. I would guess that the author is not in favor of Donald Trump since the writer works for the New York Times, but it's very hard to tell.  The raid definitely  means that there will be something to find connecting the affair of Trump and Stormy Daniels. What confuses me is why Trump calls it 'breaking in' if they had the right to raid because of a warrant. I think that Trump is trying to make it sound like the FBI are the ones who are in trouble. I chose this article because I heard about what happened this morning and I love the New York Times and how i...

Summer Trip

     One day my parents get a call from my aunt. She tells us she scored six tickets to a Justin Bieber concert in Dallas. It was on my sister’s birthday. My sister and I are freaking out because rappers called Migos were opening up for him. Everyday before the concert it was just crazy to think that i was going to get to see two really, really, really well known artists. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity that was very exciting.       A couple of days before we were going to the concert, I get a call from my cousin (the one who was taking us to the concert). I find out that Justin Bieber cancelled the concert. My reaction to that was being very sad and disappointed. I mean, I had learned almost all of Migos and JB’s songs. We were all mad. I was almost crying because I was really looking forward to seeing them perform. We still went to Houston and had a good time there. The day that we were supposed to go to the concert is when we ev...
